...........................

5 years later...

The sun was shining brightly, highlighting each detail of the natural beauty of Swat. The afternoon sun was at its peak but the fragrance of fresh blooming flowers is enhancing the whole scenery. Their vibrancy is creating a feeling of jubilation.

It's a beautiful time in swat when the flowers of different colors spread their petals and show off their uniqueness with pride and make the spectacles to praise their LORD creation and his boundless rewards.

The spring season brings the message of a new beginning, hope, and freshness that was not easy to describe in words but this beautiful day is not best for a certain someone.

She was muttering and cursing under her breath as she approached the parking lot, today her kids are going to be at the receiving end of her wrath and if by any chance her precious husband is involved then he will regret it too.

"They wanted to be John Cena and Batista... Oh when I get my hands on them, they will cry for their father and their fathers also... Stupid alpha male complex. I hope Shazir is not involved otherwise he will spend the whole year on the couch or with his stupid macho men army,"

Konain huffed as she searches her bag for the car key but didn't find them inside, she was very frustrated right now.

She was happy and relax working in her office on some important tender file and was planning to go home earlier to cook her special Sindhi biryani for her family as they loved it.

But nothing happened as we wanted it to so that's why she hurried to her car with just her handbag and forget the car key inside because she received a phone call from the kids principal that they got into a big fight in their recess break.

She was worried and concern but the principal didn't give her more detail just said that the other party was a mess and she should reach there soon.

"Ugh!!! Talk about bad luck...,"

Also, Taimoor and Shazir were not in the office, as they went to attend a meeting that's why she was a mess at the moment worried about the kids' wellbeing and angry at them for being the reckless marvel superheroes.

She was hell confused and now she has to go back and find those stupid keys but before she can take a step a familiar car stop right in front of her.

Konain was shocked and relieved at the same time as she approached the car and sat inside.

She buckles up and turned toward the driver who has already started driving with a grim expression.

"So it's that bad huh?"

"Seem so...I have to ditch my patients because the principal of my kids called to inform that they were practicing WWE in the school canteen and to say I am pissed is an understatement,"

"Tell me about it...,"

Manizeh rolled her eyes at Konain words as she turned toward the road where the school is.

"So how did you came here and not directly go to the school Bhabhi,"

"I was going to the school directly but then Shazir called to inform that they get the same call and on their way to school. Mir had already informed me about their meeting so I guess you might need the lift as true to Shazir words you were panicking in the parking lot,"

Manizeh teased with a smirk as she keeps driving while Konain just rolled her eyes at her husband and sister-in-law but appreciate the care.

"Well, thanks because I definitely needed the lift... I don't know what to do, hoori will be so scared Bhabhi... You know she doesn't like violence and all,"

"I know Choti... But relax, I talked with their teacher and she told me that Ibrahim was with her and even when the principal scolds him he didn't leave Hooriya for a moment... I swear my son is already whipped... talk about the irony of this...,"

Konain chuckled but she relaxed a little because her little girl was very precious to her and the love the little boy Ibrahim has for her was speechless.

"I didn't agree more about it... He literally had heart eyes every time he looked at her and the face Shazir made is very much entertaining...,"

This time it's Manizeh turn to laugh her heart out as she finally parked in the school parking lot for the visitors.

"Come on let's see what our idiots do now... I swear I am already tired with their weekend cold prank wars and if this is a bigger mess than I thought it is... I am grounding them all,"

Konain shivered as she remembered those horrible weekends. The weekend prank wars as their husbands and kids called them.

Taimoor and Shazir will have their team and will prank each other with the best pranks and on the last day which was Sunday, the person who loses will treat everyone with a dinner party.

She grimaces at the memories of when Shazir and his teams which consists of Almas and Parisa got talcum powder in Taimoor hairdryer and also video recorded his reaction.

He thought that he won but the next morning Shazir Khan woke up with multiple wax strips on his legs courtesy of Taimoor team that has Hooriya and of course Ibrahim.

And let's say that Shazir Khan was a screamer because his wife took her sweet time to remove the wax strips from his legs by ripping them off.

And the reaction was so hilarious that Taimoor filmed it and also made it a ritual to play the video daily after dinner for everyone's entertainment.

This prank war gets out of hand when one-day Shazir tied Taimoor car keys with 50 helium balloons, and release them in the house that has about 19 feet tall roofs. Taimoor was getting ready for an important meeting but when he sees what his brother do he just shrugged.

But the reaction was not what Shazir expected as Taimoor took a car key from his pocket after kissing the kids and winking at Shazir that's when he knew that something is not.

"Allah Hafiz idiot... Have fun with the balloons and key,"

That's when he found that his teammates were traitors and were bribed by Mir Taimoor Khan like always as they exchange his car key with Shazir.

And all this leads to Shazir Khan bouncing around the house like a monkey with a target gun to pop the balloons to get his car key, as he cursed his foresighted brother.

The elders and their wives are not happy about all this because it leaves a mess behind but this is their way of being involved in their kids' lives and work things so they just scolded them and laughed when alone.

Also, one thing most amazing about this family is that the kids were very much involved in activities with their parents and family, give less attention to gadgets and other stuff.

Shazir and Konain give complete permission to the elder couple to love and discipline their kids.

While the kids love and respect their bade Papa and Badi mama very much, specially Hooriya who have everyone in that house wrapped around her little finger with her cute doe eyes.

Konain sighed as she came out of her thoughts and followed Manizeh inside the building. They also noticed Taimoor car which means that they already arrived.

"Looks like they are already here...,"

Manizeh commented and Konain nodded as she narrowed her eyes.

"I swear if Shazir is a little bit involved in this I am going to throw his chocolate stash and his X-box away,"

Konain huffed as she greeted the teachers and Manizeh tried her best to keep her composure after she heard Konain threat.

"Well then good luck to Shazu because he might need it...,"

"Yeah, he did because this all is screaming Shazir Khan from afar...,"

Manizeh chuckled as they turned around the hallway and come face to face with their husbands, where Taimoor is eyeing the kids, Shazir is wearing a proud smile that was enough for everyone to know who was behind all this drama.

She fake coughed to get their attention and the kids were gulping when they saw their mothers, the boys are not there only the girls.

But Shazir was the most scared as he looked at the murderous look on his wife's face.

Manizeh and Konain moved toward the chairs where a 15 years old Parisa was sitting looking bored out of her mind but still smile nervously at her mother.

Manizeh stood in front of her with arms folded to the chest and a stern look on her face.

"Start talking Parisa Taimoor Khan...,"

"I didn't do anything, Mama... They just call me here because I am their elder sister that's all...,"

Manizeh knew her daughter will never lie but for her siblings, she can kill anyone so after nodding her head still doubtful she moved toward her husband.

Konain ignores her husband and bends in front of her 6 years old daughter who was looking scared.

"Are you ok hoori?"

Hooriya looked at her mother and immediately hugged her as she mumbled in her neck.

She was concerned about her daughter but Hooriya next words made her smile lightly.

"Mama they took Rahim and Bhai inside... I am scared because the bad boys are there too. Please help them, mama... They were protecting us, I swear...,"

Konain was confused but she just nodded at her daughter as she wiped her cheeks and kissed them.

"I will see what we can do about it but stop crying ok... And tell mama are you, ok baby?"

But before Hooriya can answer, a strong and beautiful voice interrupts them as Konain notices the other 6 years old girl beside her daughter.

"She is fine... Ibrahim Bhai just went inside after uncle Taimoor give him the angry eyes so don't worry aunt Nain...,"

"Ok miss cute and confidence but what are you doing here shameen?"

"Nothing... Some idiots tried bulling us, I was going to break their nose but those two messed it up and now I am angrier at them...,"

Konain chuckled at the words as she pulled her cute cheeks and let the girls talk.

Konain eyed the 6 years old girl who was the daughter of Taimoor friend DSP Shahzamaan who helped them greatly in the past and best friend of her daughter.

Shameen Hayat Shahzamaan was Hooriya best friend since diapers as their mothers get along well and also shameen was the crush of her elder son Almas Shazir Khan.

Konain shipped them totally because they are the perfect match for each other but keep quiet as she waits for the right time.

Shameen is the total opposite of Hooriya, she is strong, bold, brave just like her father, and has a big mouth on her.

While Hooriya is anything but that, she is the most innocent and pure member of the Khan family, that why everyone loves and protect her the most.

The principal came there and both couples stood up to greet her.

"Assalam o Alaikum Mr. And Mrs. Khan... I know I call you all urgently but this is important and get out of my hands,"

Taimoor nodded his head as he looked at his girls for one more time and turned toward the principal again.

"No problem... Shameen father was out on a mission and her mother was busy with her newborn twin boys so I am also here as her guardian...,"

"Very well... Please come inside my office we will continue this there...,"

"Wait, Mrs. Hussain... do the girls have any part in this?"

Manizeh asked the most important question and Konain waited for the answer.

"No I just bring them here to cool the boys down and I must say Ibrahim was a lot more difficult to handle when I tried to separate him from Hooriya... He must love his little sister a lot but please come inside this is much more serious,"

Shazir snorted at the word 'little sister' as Taimoor glared at him.

"Oh say it in front of him... He will show you more than anger tantrum,"

Shazir muttered under his breath as the ladies heard him and tried not to smile.

"So the girls can go and pack their stuff because I wanted to take the kids home after all this,"

Taimoor ignored his brother and turned to the principal who was confused at Shazir behavior but didn't say a word.

"Yes, Mr. Khan you can take them home... Go girls get your stuff,"

"You also go and get your stuff shameen... I will drop you off at your home,"

Shameen nodded her head as she smiled at her Taimoor uncle. He bent down and kissed all the three girls' foreheads and signaled them to go.

"Let's go now..,"

They entered the room and the first thing they saw made them all gasp with concern.

Two boys sat in the office, one with a black eye and the other with a red swollen cheek.

They turned toward the culprits responsible for the mess, Almas looked scared for a moment when he saw his family but then he heard the boy whimper and started glaring at him.

While Mir Ibrahim Khan was already doing the honor as he was drilling holes in the two boys' skull, he was annoyed because the principal told him to come inside leaving his scared hoori all by herself.

The 12 years old Ibrahim's knuckles are red and a good telltale of his reckless actions while the 10 years old Almas had a torn shirt and busted lip. Both of them are busy glaring at the other boys.

"Please take a seat...,"

They nodded their head as the couples took their seats. Konain sat beside Shazir, she was furious when she saw Hooriya state but after looking at the boys she was in hulk mode.

She turned toward her husband and whispered grinding her teeth to keep calm.

"Please tell me you are not involved or you didn't encourage this in any way?"

Shazir gulped at her words as he sheepishly smiled and answered her more like question her.

"I don't?..."

"You don't sound convincing Shazir... It's a question more than a statement,"

"Why do you think that I will do something like this Nain? I am not stupid...,"

He huffed as he was talking in a hushed tone so no one but only she can hear him.

"Good then because if I find out you have any kind of involvement in this drama your chocolate stash and X-box will pay the prize,"

Konain said the words and turn her attention to the principal leaving a scared Shazir to gape at her like a fish.

"So what exactly happened here?"

Manizeh was curious and anxious when she saw her son and nephew but when she saw the other two boys she cringed because they are beaten badly.

"These two are Almas class fellows Khizar and Hadi. They tried to tease Hooriya and Shameen in the recess break but your boys here didn't wait for a moment and beat them,"

Konain and Manizeh glared at their sons while the fathers remain calm.

"I talk with both Khizar and Hadi's parents and they are really angry. They wanted to suspend them or more like rusticate them but I can't do that because the damage was done by both parties,"

Taimoor nodded his head as he looked at the four messed up boys.

"Good because I wanted to punish the culprit myself even when it's my son and nephew...,"

"The boys' parents just wanted to resolve the matter because the kids will be kids always fighting...,"

"True... So can I talk with the boys for a moment?"

Shazir asked surprising everyone, the principal nodded thinking that he will go to his son and nephew but instead he moved toward the other boys and kneel in front of them.

Khizar and Hadi gulped intimidated by the man's personality, Shazir gives them a slight smile as he looked at them.

"So will you guys tell me what happened and why are you teasing the girls?"

Khizar and Hadi both turn red in embarrassment as they looked down also because Ibrahim and Almas were glaring at him.

"Stop glaring you both...,"

Taimoor snapped them out of their glaring contest as they looked down pleasing him.

Shazir give a small smile to his brother and turned to the boys.

"Come on... You don't have to be afraid just tell me the reason. I promise no one will hurt you,"

Khizar gulped as he whispered the words but they are still not audible.

"I can't hear you... Can you please repeat?"

"Because we wanted to be their friends... These two are always around them and it's irritating that's why we go to them to be friends but...,"

Khizar spoke after a few minutes but the growling scared him. Both Ibrahim and Almas were red with anger.

"Ignore them... Continue...,"

Hadi was the one who continues his friend's unsaid words.

"They came there and started the fight... they are always around their sisters but we didn't want to hurt them,"

Another round of growling startled them as the angry Ibrahim and Almas moved to punch them but their mothers stopped them.

"See they always behave like that... It's good to be protective of your sisters but this is really unacceptable behavior, Mr. Khan...,"

The principal said but the next moment she was shocked.

"She is not my sister!!!"

Ibrahim and Almas yelled at the same time as they struggle in their mother's arms.

The principal and the boys were shocked but the couples know what is the meaning behind those words.

The principal coughed to disperse the awkwardness, as she eyed the boys and their parents.

Taimoor shook their head and turned to the boys after stopping his son and nephew.

"Shut up you both... Now you two... I think you are too small to like someone and make friends with the girls. Make friends with the boys of your age... you both look intelligent, so do you understand?"

The boys nodded their heads as they gulped at the man.

"Yes, my brother is right... don't fight with these idiots and make friends with boys of your age...,"

"But Baba you told...,"

"Almas Shazir Khan... Stop talking and apologies to your principal now...,"

Almas was going to say something but Shazir cut him off. Everyone looked at him suspiciously as he smiled sheepishly.

"I am sorry ma'am...,"

"It's ok Almas... But please make sure you don't do anything like this again...,"

"We are sorry ma'am... We won't do anything like this again,"

Khizar and Hadi spoke as the principal smile at them and now everyone looked at Ibrahim.

He huffed at the 'I dare you' look his father was giving him as he turned toward the principal.

"I am sorry for causing trouble ma'am but I am not sorry for protecting what's mine...,"

"It's ok Ibrahim... But make sure you didn't do it again make sure to tell me or some authority,"

He nodded at the principal as he looked at his father who has a stern but pleased look in his eyes.

Manizeh and Konain shook their head at his stubbornness while Shazir rolled his eyes.

"Maybe I can find a new suitor for my baby girl...,"

Shazir regretted the words as Ibrahim instantly glared at him for saying those words.

"I will go and make sure that these two will be sent home... just excuse me for a moment,"

The principal signaled the other boys out of the room as they passed by the scary Mir Ibrahim Khan who was still glaring at his uncle.

"Geez, like father like son... He was literally glaring at me Lala, stop your son. I mean his father in his childhood was claiming his wife as Mir ki Dulhan... What did I expect from his son,"

Shazir whispered the last part but the adults heard him as Manizeh blushed in embarrassment and Taimoor bestowed him the famous glare.

While Konain just shook her head at her husband's stupidity.

"Chacho...,"
